  • Postdoctoral Position in Epigenomics -Barski lab

    The Division of Allergy and Immunology at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center has an opening for a Postdoctoral Fellow. The Barski laboratory is focused on elucidating the mechanisms of epigenetic regulation involved in immune activation, tolerance and memory. The goal of the research is to understand how the epigenome shapes the immune response and whether it is possible to modulate immune response by targeting epigenetic mechanisms. The laboratory is utilizing and developing cutting edge wet-lab and computational methods based on the next-generation sequencing. Please see: Barski et al. Cell, 2007; Barski et al. Genome Research, 2009; Cuddapah et al. Curr. Op. Imm, , 2010.

    The Division is a high-energy, dynamic, and interactive environment that is interested in recruiting self-motivated individuals with the drive to succeed and the desire to be competitive at the international level. Candidates with a strong background in molecular biology, epigenetics, bioinformatics and genomics are encouraged to apply. In particular, experience with methods such as foot-printing, chromatin and transcription assays, DNA methylation, ChIP-Seq, RNA-seq and NGS data analysis will be advantageous. This is a wet-lab position -so experimental experience is required. An established track record (as evidenced by publications in peer-reviewed journals) is a significant plus.

    Salary is competitive with an attractive benefits package that includes family health insurance, etc. For consideration, please send CV and contact information for three references to:

    Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
    by seqadmin




    The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...

    Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
    by seqadmin


    Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
